The Best Views

You'll never get it all in a camera lens, but you'll undoubtedly try. Don't let that viewfinder get attached to your face; take a few shots, or run a little videotape, and then put the camera down so you can enjoy this place with all your senses.

  • Cathedral Group: The three central mountains in the Teton Range rarely disappoint, except on the rare occasion when weather gets in the way -- clouds tend to accent rather than obscure their majesty. You'll need a wide-angle lens to get it all in from the valley floor (there are pullouts along the highway between Moran Junction and Jackson), but if you want a panoramic shot, drive east on U.S. Hwy. 26/287 toward Togwotee Pass.
  • Elk: While visiting the Jackson/Grand Teton area during the winter, take the opportunity to ride a horse-drawn sleigh out among thousands of elk on the National Elk Refuge. You'll get close-up shots of some of the biggest antler racks in the world, and you'll probably see coyotes and sometimes wolves.
